Pastor Dave gives us an update on his trip to Asia, then we get into Exodus chapter 7. "They did just as the Lord commanded them," a verse that is very important in this chapter. This verse is a perfect example of the definition of Faith: The one who believes God and obeys. The Bible talks about Pharaoh hardening his heart towards God which means an unrelenting heart which is anchored against God, and then it talks about God hardening Pharaoh's hearts which means God is allowing Pharaoh's heart to harden more. Be wary not to become like Pharaoh allowing your heart to be harden towards God. Have a tender heart because every time God moves it is an opportunity for you to experience His Grace.

"Therefore we are ambassadors for Christ, God making His appeal through us." 2 Cor 5:20 ESV Isn't it amazing? Christ has His "ambassadors" in every corner of the world! And you, year Christian, are one of them; if you are faithful to your Savior. What does it mean to be an "ambassador"? Well, the answer to that question can be challenging, unnerving and--oh!--so richly rewarding!

"...God who, through Christ, has reconciled us to Himself and has given us a ministry of reconciliation." 2 Cor 5: 18 Ever since Man's fall into sin, a great chasm yawns wide! it separates the human race from the God who loves us so! But what wonderful news we read in our Scripture this morning. God has been longing for that chasm to be bridged! His great desire is for you, and I, to be reconciled to Him!  Message by Pastor Rod Schorr, Calvary Chapel Old Towne, Orange, CA From his series on 2 Corinthians: You the Ultimate Survivor

2 Chronicles 20:1-30; Is 58;11 Pastor Jiri Novak explains the wonderful protection, provision and victory that is granted to one of Israel's kings when he truly serves and worships the Lord Almighty. "The Lord will guide you always, he will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land and will strengthen your fram. You will be like a well-watered garden, like a spring whose waters never fail." Is. 58:11 

"Looking up, they saw that the stone had been rolled back--it was exceedingly large." Mk. 16:4 Technically speaking, a person cold argue that all the eyewitnesses of the Resurrection were lying! It's an absurd argument, but it cannot be completely refuted. But there is one powerful witness to the Lord's Resurrection that could not lie, and can't be refuted. It's the stone that covered the tomb. If it could speak, and explain how it moved, it would prove the Resurrection beyond a shadow of a doubt. Let's take a look...
